CONNECTICUT COLLEGE APPLICATION CAMPAIGN COMPONENTSConnecticut College Application Campaign (October 15 - January 15) - CCAC is part of the American College Application Campaign initiative with the goal to provide every graduating high school senior the opportunity to apply to college and for financial aid. Special focus is placed on assisting students who would be the first in their families to attend college and students who may not have otherwise seriously considered applying to college.
FAFSA Completion Campaign (October 1 to March 1) - FAFSA Completion Campaign in CCAN's initiative focused on encouraging a school-wide rally around FAFSA and scholarship completion to help students find cash for college.
Decision Day (Around May 1 through May 31) - Decision Day is part of the National College Signing Day initiative, and is focused on recognizing high school seniors for their postsecondary educational plans and encouraging younger students and families to prepare early for postsecondary education. College Decision Day is held annually on or around May 1 and is designed to coincide with the date that most seniors must inform a college of their plans to enroll.
